01 / Overview

Regional centralized cooling refers to setting up centralized refrigeration stations within a certain area to prepare air conditioning chilled water, and providing air conditioning cooling capacity to each building through a pipeline network. The system consists of an energy station, a transmission pipeline network, a cooling station, and a cooling end. As a load aggregator, virtual power plants use monitoring data to optimize the cooling capacity and pipeline flow of refrigeration stations, improving energy efficiency. At the same time, the energy demand of the centralized cooling system will be integrated with the electricity market, using traded electricity to drive refrigeration stations, meeting regional cooling needs, and achieving efficient energy utilization.

02 / How visitors use it

The unit is designed for unsupervised public use: controls are recessed or shielded, moving parts are enclosed, and the interface is operable by a child of about six with no instruction. Where a screen is used, the language can be switched without changing the hardware, and the content can be replaced on site.

03 / The science behind it

Ice storage technology. The entire cooling system is similar to the human heart and circulatory system. The cold station (ice storage tank) is the "heart", which uses electric refrigeration equipment to make cold water ice during low electricity prices at night; The cold water delivery pipe is the "artery". During the day, high-temperature water enters the "heart" to melt ice and provide cooling. The "artery" continuously delivers 2 ℃ frozen water to various user terminals, and the central air conditioning system at the user port converts the cold water into cold air and delivers it to different spaces; The air conditioning return pipe is a "vein" that returns the water that has been sent out at 11 ℃ -12 ℃ to the "heart" for circulating ice making.

04 / Built for a public floor

Every unit leaves the factory after a running test: mechanisms cycled, electronics burned in, edges dressed, fixings torqued and marked. Wear parts — bearings, sliders, lamps, belts, touch panels — are modular and listed on the spare-part sheet, so a venue technician can replace them without returning the exhibit. Crating is plywood with foam blocking; the loading plan and packing list travel with the shipment.
